I've heard it's not popular among the population. That would be too bad, that war actually seems necessary.
It seems necessary, if for no other reason than it's been started, but hopefully Afghanistan is not allowed to just drift like it was from 1989 to 2001. I realize they are only two answers but the support talked about here seems lukewarm at best.

According to Wikipedia
War in Afghanistan (2001–present)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Afghanistan_(2001%E2%80%93present)
The troop numbers are as follows.
NATO - ISAF: 51,350
US: 19,950
UK: 8,745
Germany: 3,600
France: 3,300
Canada: 2,830
other countries: 20,120
(Dec. 1, 2008)
Afghan National Army: 50,000
US non-ISAF troops: 28,300 (Dec. 1, 2008)
according to this link, Australia has 1100 in Afghanistan.

war actually seems necessary, when is killing people necessary? Yes australia is supportive of the "war on terror" as your esteemed former president put it. Were we not there when he invaded the country? The fact that we have also lost brothers, sons and fathers should clearly answer that question. Just because we don't all agree with what is happening, doesn't mean we won't support our fellow soldiers. |
